My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sampson is a one of a kind dog! He may not be a hundred percent Chow but he is fantastic! Does he love to entertain himself? Yes! Does he tolerate being around other dogs? Yes, he does! Does he ignore other dogs when around them? Yes! Can he live with other dogs, not quite sure. He will take patience and training and he will give you laughter and love. Everything you really need.

He is a joy and a light and just a different type of dog. If you have him in your life you actually don't need another dog. He will entertain you and love you beyond belief. Does he need you? Yes! Do you need him? Yes!

He just needs to be able to shine. Give him that chance and you will never be sorry!!!

**Sampson is located in Austin, TX. Paid transport can be arranged. Transport costs range from $200-400.**

More about this rescue

Houston Chow Chow Connection is a collaborative of dog lovers and rescuers that dedicate their time, efforts and talents toward helping rescue Chow Chows in need. We are an entirely volunteer-driven 501(c)(3) organization with no administrative costs.


Our rescue traces its origin back several years to the work of Dianne Watson. Dianne dedicated much of her young life to saving homeless Chows in North and West Texas. In her memory, Houston Chow Chow Connection continues her passion of uniting Chow Chows with perfect forever families.


HCCC began rescuing in 2013 and re-homed over 400 dogs since inception, including over 125 in 2017! Our dogs found homes on the East and West coasts of the U.S. and have traveled north and south! As we continue to rescue and re-home more and more Chows, our costs grow. As you may know, rescuing animals takes money. Not only is there the typical care and upkeep (including food and general veterinary care), some of our rescues need specialized treatments.


At HCCC we don’t pick and choose the dogs we rescue – they pick us. While the majority of our rescues are healthy, we never turn our backs on the homeless, Chows with physical issues, or disabilities. Some of our incoming babies have suffered long-term and extensive neglect. New HCCC dogs may require spay/neuter, shaving due to extensive matting, entropion and/or hip replacement surgeries, treatment of skin problems and a variety of other issues.
